Car won't start...

DE @DaddyEvil (164423) • United States 23 Dec

We've been very careful to drive at least once a week or start the car and let it run for 45 minutes to an hour once a week... We drove to the store last Thursday. Today I had a doctor's appointment and when I went out to start...

ShannyBananny How frustrating this keeps happening to you. I’m sorry you had to miss your appointment and hope they were understanding about it.

Gifts for my father – part three

Judy Evans @JudyEv (368162) • Rockingham, Australia 11 Dec

I’ve written about two of the gifts I bought for my father way back when. Another one we bought was a magnetic sign which stuck to the door of his ute (pickup). It had the name of his Merino sheep stud on it. It was a decent size...

They are warriors for peace

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (67355) • Centralia, Washington 3 Dec

Probably most everybody has heard of the Buddahist monks walking across America for peace. They truly are the good guys. They are walking through communities that most likely know very little about folks who wear orange robes...

ShannyBananny I had not heard of this. That is good of them to do that. That is sad what happened to them especially the poor man who lost a leg. So kind that someone stepped in and donated a vehicle for the people who travel with them.

O Holy Night

RasmaSandra @RasmaSandra (92293) • Daytona Beach, Florida 4 Dec

Another favorite among my Christmas song repertoire. This is a sacred song about the night Jesus was born and is often performed as a Christmas carol. It is based on the French-language poem “Minuit, chretiens” written by the poet...

Kandase @Kandae11 (56878) 17 Oct

Judy Evans @JudyEv (368162) • Rockingham, Australia 29 Nov

I'm Being Lazy, Not

Loretta @noni1959 (11772) • United States 30 Nov

We’re not built to be productive every second of the day. Rest isn’t a sign that something is wrong; it’s something everyone needs. What others call “laziness” often just means I’m giving my mind and body a break, and that break...

ShannyBananny I’m sorry if you have to deal with people saying you are lazy. You have some great valid points! I tend to have a hard time sitting still and doing nothing but you saying how even when you sit still you are thinking and how beneficial that can be is so true!

Our first real snowstorm in Michigan this year

Marsha @MarshaMusselman (38862) • Midland, Michigan 30 Nov

The forecast was for 5-8 inches starting yesterday. But it kept getting pushed back hours at a time. That isn't unusual for our area. Often it gets pushed back enough where we never get anything. We got a dusting of snow early...
